A Changing Tech and Legal Landscape in Corporate
Whether it is personal, customer, training or other data, one thing is clear: data continues to be an important currency and revenue driver for companies. Rapidly changing technology, coupled with developing regulations, requires companies that use or disclose data to be extremely vigilant to stay current. Today, companies struggle to keep up with seemingly nonstop changes to state-level law. These struggles are exacerbated by quickly developing regulations and regimes overseas— creating challenges for international data transfers and international transactions. To optimize the value of their data into 2025 and beyond, companies should consider addressing these challenges with a new focus and additional precision in their commercial agreements.
